Dark Knight Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 There's a 5.5 on eBay, but I think the seller is a scammer. He sold a raw AF 15 for cheap. He doesn't have a history of selling comics either, just cheap stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaydogrules Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 I sold a 4.0 at heroes for 8k Looks like joey d was spot on with his pricing after all for an un restored 4.0 after that restored one on heritage closed at 5k+ a couple weeks back. -J.

Boba Posted June 23, 2014 Author Share Posted June 23, 2014 . . . so cool that in the trailers for the TV show Barry's carrying a magazine with the word "SHOWCASE" in the title. I never would have imagined I'd see this day come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NinjaSealed Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Just too much demand and no real supply to speak of. I can't replace these copies even at prices im selling for What are your thoughts on total supply of this book? Are there a lot of copies sitting out there unslabbed? Is this the toughest of the big SA keys? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
showcase22gr1959 Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 I sold a 4.0 at heroes for 8k Congratulation on the record sale of the 4.0 and 5.0 sale. The book has made the next leg up. So, it's like 2K a point, for 5.0 and under. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boba Posted June 23, 2014 Author Share Posted June 23, 2014 I don't have the exact video (and I can't look at all of them now) - but it isn't hard to find - it was one of the videos that links to it were recently posted here: http://boards.collectors-society.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=7793190&fpart=4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this the toughest of the big SA keys? This is easily the toughest SA key. No one can know how many are out there raw, but based on how many restored copies relative to unrestored that are on the census one could extrapolate that a lot of those copies still in the wild are also restored. Some of the more seasoned collectors may correct me if I'm wrong but I believe showcase 4 was the most valuable SA comic for many years until AF 15 overtook it some years back. And we all know plentiful those are in relation to SC 4. -J. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Showcase in the early 90's was the most valuable book for a few years before AF15 retook it's lead. If I recall there was a Flash show in the early 90's too and prices jump tremendously. This SC4 in 5.0 and under is beginning to go for half as much as AF15's in similar grades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G.A.tor Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 I had 9 copies about 2 years ago...sold 5 of them and was able to buy 3 more last year and 1 late last year...so, I had 8 available last year, heading into the con season.... sold 4, so I have only had 4 this year...have sold 3 and bought one back, now I am down to just a 3.0 (the one recently bought back from a buddy), and my 7.5 that I'm getting offers today, much higher than I had priced for at Atlanta con last month (I adjusted price up for heroes ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
